Preface

Established in 26th September, 1987, Government Degree College, Kamalpur was primarily viewed as the threshold of higher education for the under privileged masses of the of Tripura.

It gives me immense pleasure in having been able to submit the Self Study Report of this institution to the National Accreditation and Assessment Council ( NAAC), Bangaluru, for accreditation in reference to our Letter of Intent ( LOI ), for quality sustenance, enhancement and improvement of this college.

Prepared with utmost sincerity and a positive attitude to embrace the goals embedded in positive future, the report conforms to the guideline chalked out by NAAC.

Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur is situated in remote Dhalai District of Tripura which is considered as one of the most underprivileged and backward zone of the state and the country as well. Though in terms of University results, the college has registered quite a good track of academic performance with consistency over the years, we do not make any tall claim of achievement. Rather we take pride in inculcating moral, ethical and humane values beside the input of educational potentials in our students, great majority of whom are from schedule caste, schedule tribe and other backward castes with numerous socio-economic handicaps. Our quest is essentially focused on the zeal to support and bolster such marginalized people educationally, inducting them to the national main stream of advancement and inspiring them to believe in and achieve for themselves.

The filed report (SSR) is the collaborative outcome of our campus community where each and every member put his/her head & hands together in collective effort for the betterment of the society. The exercise has been fruitful in various ways providing us with both hindsight and vision to march forward and analyze the institutional progress and possibilities to tap talents and resources which would otherwise have remained unnoticed.

Geared up, for accreditation and assessment we once again re-affirm and re- dedicate ourselves to the commitment for a better society and a brighter posterity.

Besides overall academic excellence our college is determined to make our students as perfect individuals with sense of morality, humane values, national integrity and social commitment, so that they can cope up with the national main stream easily. The college follows the curriculum assigned by its affiliating university – Tripura University (A Central University) and is under the administrative control of Directorate of Higher Education Govt. of Tripura.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 6

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

offers self-financing course like Basic Computer Course (BCC) & Course on Computer Concepts (CCC) under National Institute of Electronics & Information Technology (NIELIT) (erstwhile DOEACC Society). The Principal acts as the Head of the Institution. At present there are 23 (twenty three) regular faculty members out of which 13 (thirteen) are Associate/Assistant professors as per UGC norms and the rest are Post-Graduate Teachers (PGT) recruited by the Department of Higher Education, Govt. of Tripura. Every year, during the peak period of academic session, a no of guest faculties are engaged on temporary basis. The college office is supported by 23 (twenty three) technical, office and support staff.

The criteria wise efforts can be summarized as below –

Curricular aspects:

The college has to follow the curriculum designed by Tripura University, the affiliating University. As per University curriculum, since 2014-2015 academic session, all the UG courses are run according to the Six-semester Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) which has scope for lateral and vertical mobility within the programs and courses. For their betterment, students are motivated to participate in seminar, workshops, group discussions, games & sports, cultural activities as well as different awareness programmes. The institution is also extending the opportunity of studying in distance mode under Distance Education centre of Tripura University and IGNOU following there curriculum to the young aspirants of the district who are unable to carry on their higher studies in the regular mode. Self-financed courses like BCC & CCC are also offered. For overall monitoring of quality development and up gradation, the college has an active Internal quality assurance cell (IQAC) functional from the year 2014 which suggests time to time regarding the developmental issues to the college authority for the overall betterment of the institution.

Teaching-Learning & Evaluation:

Utmost importance is given to the Teaching - Learning & Evaluation system which is the most important part of imparting quality education. The practices, followed in this respect include class lecture with audio-visuals aids, maintenance of teacher‘s diary, preparation of lesson plan by teachers, maintenance of question bank, student feedback system, parent-teacher meeting at frequent intervals. There are 07(seven) ICT based classrooms, where the teachers make use of power point presentations to make their lectures more attractive to the students. The IQAC cell performs important role in the process by providing timely inputs and suggestions. For the weak learners, tutorial classes & remedial coaching classes are organized. Students are allowed to take active part in departmental seminars, workshops, group discussions to enrich their ability of public speaking and creativity. To sensitize the students on social responsibilities and

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 7

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

environment, the college organizes a number of awareness programmes. The faculty members regularly participate in Orientation and Refresher‘s courses organized by various UGC-Human Resource Development Centers (UGC-HRDCs) to update their knowledge of respective subject. Ample facilities for games & sports in the form of sports gear and infrastructure are available for the students which make them more fit to participate in sport‘s meet at state and national level.

Research, Consultancy & extension:

The college always gives prime importance to promote research, consultancy and extension programmes. The college has a ―Research Development Cell‖ to encourage the faculty members, coordinate and approve the research proposals for timely sending to various funding agencies like UGC, ICSSR etc. The committee conducts regular meetings to discuss the project proposal submission issues and deadlines & gives suggestions to faculty members if required. To augment the research based activities of the institution, the college organizes seminars and workshops from time to time, where eminent resource persons are invited. Faculty members are always permitted to attend the national or international seminars inside or outsides the state or abroad to present their research works & also are motivated to publish articles or books.

There is no formal involvement of the Principal or faculty members of the institution in consultancy services. Meanwhile the Principal of the College is involved in advisory capacity with the implementation of several mission projects of Central/State Govt. in the district e.g., National Literacy Mission etc. She is also acting as member of Board of Governors of Dhalai District Polytechnic, Ambassa.

Infrastructure and Learning resource:

At present, the infrastructural setup of the college is not sufficient to meet the demand of increasing numbers of students. However, the vertical extension of the existing single storied academic block will be taken up shortly and hopefully it will help to minimize the space constraints. The college has a library, where–14020 (Fourteen thousand twenty) no of books are available for the students on various subjects. The automation of the Library using the open-source KOHA platform is under process. The Library has access to e-journals available under the N-LIST platform of INFLIBNET.

Besides these, all the departments have their own small departmental libraries, where the honours students can study and burrow books also. The students also can enjoy the internet facilities to update their knowledge of the subject in respective departments and in the net surfing zone of the college library.

The college has Library Committee, the Librarian & other members of the Said Committee look after all the library related activities.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 8

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

Student Support & Progression:

The College tries its level best to support its students in every respect. Regarding class support, besides the usual regular classes, tutorial, remedial & extra classes are taken. Question banks & recent and updated informations through internet on various study topics are available for the students. For better exposure, they are allowed to participate in seminars & workshops. They can express their views about the quality of class teaching and other student services and amenities through feedback and suggestion box. For extra-curricular activities, they get help from the faculties of respective committees. For honing their creativity in the field of literature they have their wall magazines. For addressing employability issues, there is carrier counseling cell to provide required help and support. Special coaching classes for jobs under Tripura Public Service Commission are arranged in collaboration State Tribal Welfare Department by the cell. The students belonging to ST, SC, OBC categories as well as lower income group general category students avail the facility of post matric and B.R. Ambedkar scholarships. For the ST boys students, there is a 30 (thirty) seat capacity ST Boys hostel within the college campus.

Regarding student‘s progression, college as such has no special cell for comprehensive tracking of the passouts. Meanwhile every year a good no of students get admitted to Tripura University and Silchar University, Assam to pursue PG courses.

Governance, Leadership and Management:

The institute strives for good governance in academic as well as non- academic fields. With active involvement of all staff and faculty members, the college is trying to provide suitable atmosphere for ideal learning to the students and to keep good understanding with other stakeholders. Meetings of different committees are convened in regular schedule regarding the plans and policies related with academic as well as administrative issues. The Principal takes necessary action regarding the implementation of resolutions taken in these meetings as per need of the hour. In some student‘s welfare issues, the students are allowed to take responsibilities, which help in grooming of leadership qualities in them. The management policy is totally controlled by the joint activities of the committees & college office, headed by the Principal.

Innovation and best practices:

Inspite of many drawbacks the college administration is always open to entertain innovative ideas coming from its teaching, non-teaching staff and students regarding better functioning of various wings of the college. This has led to many initiatives in the fields of infrastructure development, library and others in recent years which can go a long way in improving the quality of the institution. Some representative examples are-

 Establishment of separate departmental rooms including departmental libraries

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 9

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

 Establishment of 07 (seven) smart class rooms and installation of audio system in the large class rooms  Initiatives regarding automation of College library using KOHA platform  Extending Internet connectivity to different blocks of the college  Providing drinking water facility to all blocks of the college  Felicitation of the employees for their academic/ research achievements etc.

The institute is aware of the connotations of ―Best Practices‖ in the field of higher education as propagated by NAAC in its various Manuals of Best Practices and adopted two such practices, one each from the broad fields of Library and Information Services and Community Engagement. From the field of Library and information services it has adopted the best practice of ―Participation of the students in the maintenance of the college library‖. The practice was initiated to address the lack of library consciousness of the students and involves organization of month long ―Library Management Practice‖ programmes involving a representative set of students from all departments of the college on regular basis. The practice is bearing fruit with development of positive attitude in the participating students alongwith awareness about the value of a library and its services resulting in more frequent library visits. From the field of Community Engagement, the college has adopted ―Community Service-learning through Blood Donation‖ as a best practice with organization of Blood Donation Camps in the college premises on a regular basis in collaboration with Tripura State Blood Transfusion Council (An autonomous Body under Directorate of Family Welfare and Preventive Medicine, Government of Tripura) in which staff and students of the college participate with enthusiasm. The voluntary blood donation camps have left a great impact on the students as well as teachers. The impact is also apparent on personality development, moral education and on civic responsibility and is reflected in reduced indiscipline and enhanced sense of responsibility among the students towards the college.

SWOC Analysis

Methodology:

SWOC analysis is done on the basis of feedback received from the students, parents, alumni and also through group discussion, interaction with the faculty members and others stakeholders related with college development activities.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 11

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

 There is no hostel facility for girls.  Periodical training programme for the administration staff to be organized.  Good transport facilities for students are lacking.  Lack of academic and administrative autonomy  Recruitment and transfer of faculty and office staff is controlled by State Govt. policy and for that often there is shortage of teacher and non- teaching staff.

Opportunities:

 The college has large campus area to develop/build new infrastructure with financial support from UGC/RUSA/State Grants, to accommodate new programmes in future.  The college has ample opportunities to obtain funds from different agencies- like UGC/RUSA/ICSSR/DST/DBT to organize seminars, workshop or to procure books and journals.  The faculty members have the opportunity to attend faculty development programs like Orientation Course, Refreshment courses etc.  The faculty members have the opportunity to pursue Ph.D. work on part time basis in different University as per Govt. rule & also to carry out minor or major Research Project under UGC.  The students have the opportunities to available library facilities with internet.

Challenges:

 To equip our students to make themselves fit for their challenging future.  To provide modern facilities and techniques in the field of teaching and learning.  To arrange or organize more faculty training programme so that they can deal with their students with the best practices.  To counsel those students, who can not maintain regularity in attendance.  To build the attitude of social service in the young generation through different programs.

The model questionnaire issued by the NAAC is used as a model to prepare the feedback form for this purpose. IQAC analyses these feedback forms and gives the analyzed evaluative report teacher-wise to the Principal.  Parents-Teacher meeting is also helpful in evaluating the teachers as a form of external evaluation.  Alumni are another society of peers which helps in evaluating the teachers.  There is no official peer team evaluation mechanism in the college as such. However, the annual confidential reports of the faculty members are assessed and processed by the Principal and sent to Directorate of Higher Education of the state for appraisal.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1 How does the institution ensure that the stakeholders of the institution especially students and faculty are aware of the evaluation processes?

Internal assessment answer scripts are shown to the students and the system/scheme of evaluation is explained after every internal assessment. In departmental meetings the results of the examinations are discussed by the teachers. In parent-teacher meetings parents are informed about the performance of their wards and the evaluation system/methods are communicated in this way. The method/system of creating awareness in the stakeholders about the evaluation process is as follows: Teachers:  Discussion in the Academic Council Meeting  Discussion in Departmental Heads‘ Meeting

The traditional teaching-learning method has some negative aspects like the teacher has to teach the topic based upon his memory and there is a fair chance of missing important ideas and links while actually delivering the lecture. The traditional method seems monotonous and boring to students leading to less attention and less academic achievements. For a good classroom environment, the essential things are effective and attractive delivery of contents and a shift from traditional teaching methods to the interactive ICT enabled classrooms can be of great help in that direction. Access to online teaching-learning resources has aided many teachers to get a look at some lectures form the eminent academicians all over the country and abroad. Some teachers even display the lectures in the smart classrooms to the students and later discuss with the students about how much they have grasped and learnt. The online access has also led to the use of research articles and reviews by several teachers to explain some parts of curricula which are not found in the commonly used textbooks. Access to internet and the influx of journals and new edition books has encouraged several students towards independent learning. This has led to the creation of a strong relationship between teachers and students and the establishment of an academic environment that have a positive effect on the focusing of memory, attention and problem-solving skills of the students.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 101

CRITERION VII: INNOVATION AND BEST PRACTICES

7.1 Environment Consciousness

7.1.1 Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities?

The institution explored the option of conducting Green Audit of its campus by External Auditing Agency but it was not possible due shortage of funds. It was decided that the college will conduct a Green Audit of its campus on its own following the standard guidelines for the purpose. For the same, the data related to energy management, water management, material management, waste management, travel and transport management, ecology management, knowledge management and disaster preparedness is being collected with the help of office, teaching, non-teaching staff and students. The NSS volunteers have completely surveyed the flora and fauna of the campus, and named and numbered the plants and trees.

7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco- friendly?

Following initiatives are taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly-

 Energy conservation

The buildings and classrooms of the college have natural light and ventilation, so electricity is used only during extreme conditions. The Principal's air conditioned cabin is provided with heavy curtains to make cooling more effective. All lights and fans are switched off immediately when not required. Computers, printers and other electronic instruments which are not in use are closed down. Compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) are used instead of 40/60 watts incandescent bulbs. Moreover the college is planning to upgrade from CFL to LED technology to further energy savings.

 Use of renewable energy

The college has plans to install solar panels to reduce the dependency on electricity, and promote the use of non-conventional energy and the proposal in this regard will be sent to the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy very soon.

 Water harvesting

In the college campus, there are total 6 (six) numbers of water bodies (ponds). Total 4 (four) numbers of water bodies contain water round the year , two of which are used for pisciculture. The remaining water bodies contain water for six/seven months starting from the rainy season. The rain water from the college campus is collected through drainage and percolation in these water bodies. The water collected is used for gardening and other secondary purposes. Plumbing maintenance is done on regular basis to prevent the wastage of water.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 168

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

 Check dam construction:

There are no flowing water sources in the campus to construct Check Dam.

 Efforts for Carbon neutrality

Tree plantation by NSS, NCC volunteers and the students from other departments is carried out in the campus to support carbon neutrality. The college has 5 (five) gardens with variety of plants. Besides this, a medicinal plant garden is being developed in the campus with help from Tripura State Rifles, 3rd Battalion, headquartered at kachucherra, Kamalpur. To reduce smoke, LPG fuel is used in the laboratories and for other purposes like college canteen.

 Plantation The College NSS Units conducts tree planting programme every year in the campus on the eve of Banamohatshab.

 Hazardous waste management

Hazardous waste from science laboratories is managed safely. Waste chemicals in the chemistry lab are properly disposed by dissolving them in water or by keeping them in protected zones.

 e-waste management

The e-waste load of the college is not very high. The e-waste like electronic equipments, empty toners, outdated computers, CDs, batteries, pen drives and different electric/electronic items are stored safely and sold as scrap material in regular intervals in order to ensure their safe recycling.

For that matter a workshop has been organized by the librarian to make it acquainted with the participants. 4. Amphitheatre (under construction):

In our college there is no amphitheatre right now. We have taken several steps to build up an amphitheatre. For that matter, we have consulted with the PWD and they have already started work. 5. Medicinal Plant garden under construction:

In our college we have taken initiative for a Medicinal Plant garden. In this regard Forest department of Ambassa has been consulted with. They have visited our college and selected a site for the preparation of the garden and made an estimated plan for the completion of the work.

6. Organize health camp and blood donation camp every year by NSS:

7.3 Best Practices

The institute is aware of the connotations of ―Best Practices‖ in the field of higher education as propagated by NAAC in its various Manuals of Best Practices and adopted two such practices, one each from the broad fields of Library and Information Services and Community Engagement.

7.3.1. Best Practice in Library and Information Services

1. Title of the Practice

Participation of the students in the maintenance of the college library

2. Goal

The goal of the practice is to involve students in the maintenance of the library and thereby inculcate in them service mindedness, good library practices and raise their level of awareness about the usefulness of library for better academic worth and achievement.

3. The Context The college library is an important section of the college establishment which can play a vital role in elevating the standard of scholarship and academic achievement of the students. It is expected that the students taking entry in a graduate level programme have the habit of regular library visits to supplement their knowledge of the subject by consulting suitable reference books and journals. Unfortunately the level of library consciousness and awareness of good library practice of the students of the college is not up to the mark possibly due to the rural settings of the institution with first generation learner students coming mostly form very low income and backward sections of the society. This lead the institution to design and implement the practice of involving the students in the maintenance of the library.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 171

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

4. The Practice

Month Long ―Library Management Practice‖ programmes are arranged taking 40 (forty) odd students cutting across all the departments of the college. During the programmes the students are imparted knowledge about the library and it‘s functioning by the librarian before involving them in the activities of maintenance and upkeep of the library. During the training theoretical knowledge and hands on training is given on important aspects of Library functioning such as-  Processing of New Arrivals  Classification of Books  Shelving  Book Maintenance  Cataloguing  Use of internet in searching details of books and journals required for the library  Searching procedure for a particular book or books on a particular topic in the stack (both manual and using library automation software KOHA)  Preservation and conservation techniques etc.

Due to the shortage of trained library staff and infrastructure it is not possible to involve more students in the practice or holding the programmes with greater frequency.

5. Evidence of Success Positive attitude developed in the participating students alongwith awareness about the value of a library and its services resulting in more frequent library visits. In addition, the maintenance staff is benefited by the assistance of students resulting in a better organized library.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Dearth of dedicated professional staff to train students came up as the main constraint for successfully training more number of students. 7.

7.3.2 Best Practice in Community Engagement

1. Title of the Practice Community Service-learning through Blood Donation 2. Goal

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 172

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

The objective of the practice is to encourage the students to create closer ties with the local community they leave in with the result to deepen the quality of learning and discovery.

3. The Context The community-based learning combines traditional classroom instruction with community-service to enhance the learning of the students and their civic participation. The college‘s focus for community improvement and engagement connects academic program with community service so that students, faculty and community partners can forge linkage between theory and practice, between knowledge and action and between the resources of institution and the community development.

4. The Practice College organizes regular blood donation camps as a part of 7(seven) days yearly NSS special camp and also on other occasions. During the last four years 07(seven) blood donation camps were organized in the college premises in collaboration with Tripura State Blood Transfusion Council (An autonomous Body under Directorate of Family Welfare and Preventive Medicine Government of Tripura) with combined collection of 118 units of blood. (Details given below)

Sl. Date of the Organized by No of Voluntary Units of No. Camp Donors blood participated collected 1. 03.07.2012 Student Union Council of the 20 20 college 2. 07.02.2013 College administration 10 10 3. 27.07.2013 -do- 41 41 4. 15.02.2014 NSS Unit of the college 09 09 5. 29.10.2014 Student Union Council of the 10 10 college 6. 07.03.2015 College administration in 07 07 collaboration with Kamalpur Vol. Blood Donors Assoc. 7. 22.11.2015 Guest Lecturer Association 21 21 unit of the college TOTAL UNITS OF BLOOD COLLECTED 118

The Institution aims at ensuring easy accessibility and adequate supply of safe and quality blood and blood components collected from voluntary blood donors to those in need. The blood is stored in NACO supported Blood Bank at Bimal Singha Memorial Hospital, Kamalpur and transported under optimum conditions with the help of Tripura State Blood Transfusion Council to other such Blood Banks also if required. Transfusion is always under the supervision of trained personnel. Under the policy, blood transfusion is available to people irrespective of their economic or social status. The college also maintains a close contact with the local Blood Bank for any urgent demands regarding some particular category of blood. The blood bank keeps a record of regular donors from amongst the staff and students of the college and contacts them in times of urgency through the college administration/ Student Union Council of the

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 173

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

college. This practice proved very useful in meeting local demands of blood from time to time even with the limited storage capacity of the local blood bank.

5. Evidence of Success The practice has made an impact on community, students, and teachers. Donated blood is being utilized by people and institutions not only in Kamalpur but also in neighbouring areas. The blood is also being utilized by the patients suffering from thalassemia, AIDS and Hemophilia, etc.. The voluntary blood donation camps have resulted in great impact on the students as well as teachers. The impact is also apparent on personality development, moral education and on civic responsibility and is reflected in reduced indiscipline and enhanced sense of the responsibility among the students towards the college. It has also created a sense of managerial ability among the students for organizing such type of events in the college.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Obstacles faced include: inadequacy of resources; non-availability of latest technology for operating the blood transfusion services; and lack of extensive awareness programs so as to alleviate undue fears of students for blood donation .

39. SWOC analysis of the department and future plans:

Strength:

 Competent and committed faculties.  Continuously updated and maintained library with e- resources  Close teachers‘- students‘ relationship.  Departmental Library.  Presence of Language Laboratory for effective teaching and learning.  In spite of the shortage of faculties, the teachers take enough initiative to manage the classroom, department and ensure a satisfactory pass percentage.  PPT, Video Clips and movies related to the syllabus make the classroom environment more productive.

Weaknesses:

 Lack of permanent faculty members(Associate Prof, Asst. Prof or PGT) in the department.  Deficiency in faculty/students publication.  Lack of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary courses.  Inadequacy of fund to conduct various programmes and activities (workshop/seminar etc.).  Problems are also there with the availability of Books, Journals, and Magazines etc.  Most of the students are from Bengali medium background, so they are facing problems with the subjects.

Opportunities:

 English is essential in every sphere of life like the modern science, trade, commerce, technological and industrial languages  English language opens opportunity to communicate with peoples over the world.  With the help of this subject it is very easy to find every necessary information, articles and news of the world.  English language helps the students in order to face any kinds of Competitive Examinations in this recent world.  The number of seats for both Honours and Pass are enough. So, many students can take this as a field of their study.  The Language Laboratory provides opportunities to acquire spoken English with perfect pronunciation.

Challenges:

 Most of the students are not interested to take English as a major subject.

SSR Cycle 1 - Govt. Degree College, Kamalpur, D halai, Tripura - Page 198

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

 Economic condition of the people is acting as barrier to carry their future studies on this subject.  Due to lack of permanent faculty, students don‘t want to take it as a major subject.  In adequate infrastructure facility.  Limited teaching hours in semester hampers the development of teaching process.

Future plan:

 We are planning to organise a State/ National /Inter-National level Seminar.  Planning to organize Workshops to enhance the students in different field for their future convenience.  To introduce Post-Graduation Course in English in the college.  To start inter- disciplinary and multi- disciplinary courses in the department.  We are planning to organise Debate competition, Essay competition etc. of such nature in English.  Prepare a departmental brochure.  Setting up of a developed language laboratory.  Study tours to enhance interest in the subject.  There are plans to introduce Micro-teaching.  We are planning to acquire Departmental Audio-visual instrument.  We are planning to provide internet facility to all the students.

Teacher & Student :There is interactive programme conducted in department i.e. fresher, farewell, seminar, group discussion and debate between teacher and student. 39.SWOC analysis of the department :

Strength:  The main strength of the department is the demand for the subject by the students every year.  Good attendance  Students‘ performance at University examination is very good.  Close teacher-student relationship Weakness:  No permanent faculty member.  Insufficient faculty, syllabus cannot be covered by guest faculty.  Lack of books or materials as new subject.

Opportunities:  Kokborok is taught in various schools, colleges and university, the subject has opportunities in teaching profession.  The subject is very new there is lots of scope in research work.  After graduation students can pursue post-graduation, M.A in Kokborok. Challenges:  As it is new subject and native language of Tripura to spread and to attract to non-Kokborok speaking students is very difficult.  To get permanent faculty is another challenge due to not availability subject in national eligibility test (NET/SET).  Not availability of specific kokborok Manu-script is another main challenge of this subject. Future Plan:  We are planning to organize a State/National level seminar.  Study tours to enhance interest in the subject.  We are planning to organize a workshop on quick speaking and understanding technique in koborok especially for non-kokborok speaking people.

Self-Study Report Government Degree College, Kamalpur, Dhalai, Tripura June 2016

 Continuous and ongoing feedback system  Principal‘s leadership is the driving force for all positive academic changes. Weaknesses:

 Not available own course, i.e. BSC (IT), BCA, and DCA etc.  Inadequate number of faculties.  Inadequate Infrastructure.  No sufficient Books in College Library etc.  No Lab attendant  Unsatisfactory room size for the computer Lab. Challenges:

 To attract the students towards the course and getting a good number of students is a big challenge. Opportunities:

 Plate form for students to literate in computer proficiency can start a better career option in terms of self-employment.  On successful completion of BCC/CCC student can get employment in both Govt. and corporate sector. Future plans:
